  • US and EU reach trade deal to avoid tariffs

  • Ah yes another stroke in our asses. No tax for their tech corps, now this. We should read "the art of the deal"

  • Haha fair man, if you dont chew these type of things is good to ask first to confirm. Every component seems to be the best the market can offer at the moment, so if its the best you're looking for, search no more. :)

  • literally max out every component

    "Is it good guys?" Yeah i think it's solid

  • Was there ever a time where you were incredibly lucky?

    Jump

  • I was quite lucky finding cash on the ground some time ago. I found 50 euro bill two times, 20 one time 10 another one and i think 5 one or two times.

  • What's your harmless/low-stakes conspiracy theory?

  • Mr. Track

  • Half of Canadians favour joining the EU

    Jump

  • Well, you are not wrong. But if you think about it it's still a pretty significant percentage considering Canada is one ocean distant from Europe, and has always had historically relations, economically and politically with the USA, obviously given the fact they share their only border with them. So in my opinion the number gets more weight, maybe. Probably some years ago it was much lower, or they didnt asked themselves the question at all.

  • Two books that made me cry at the end and helped me shape my idea of war and what really is for the common men are "Il sergente nella neve" (the sargent in the snow) by Mario Rigoni Stern, which is about the retreat of the Armir (italian army in Russia) after the second Don offensive by the Red Army from the point of view of Stern, as they started the endless march back to Italy on foot, with the Red Army biting their asses. Almost 80.000 between dead and missing. Amazing piece of literature and yet another reason to despise fascism; and All quiet on the western front, which doesnt need many explanations.

    Absolute chills everytime i think about those books and the images of tragedy and hopelessness they shaped so vividly in my mind.

  • How did you fuck up recently?

    Jump

  • I decided it was a good idea to do the mandatory university stage while also working this summer, while also trying to pass my last four exams. I greatly overstimaded my capacities and the trust i should have gave to my employee when they said i would be working just some days a week.

  • What keeps you going?

    Jump

  • The idea that maybe in the future i will be in a better place than now, that i'll be financially stable and i'll work a job that i like and where i can keep a good balance between it and my personal life. (Im beyond delusional)

    Are we going to refer to americans as "orcs" now?

    Jump

  • A lot of contries other than Iran are filled with religious extremists, including the USA themselves, but you dont see trump striking any of those countries. Again, USA is supplying arms to Israel, that they use to strike civilians to claim a land that is theirs according to a religious book. That alone in your view should be enough to strike both USA and Israel. Religion extremism, terrorism and mysoginism and such are a plague in a lot of countriest, but the USA hit the one that is the biggest threat to thei closest ally. This is just politics, classic imperialist american politics. Nothing more nothing less. And i repeat, im not a fan of Iran either. its just that we cant revert to an international scenery dominated by brute force imo.

  • Yeah, didn't put the /s but sometimes i forget how stupid can online people be and that somebody could really think this way.

    Jump

  • We can decide to follow a world where diplomacy and international law are the base of cooperation and problem solving, or we just decide to use brute force on everyone that has views or politics we dont like. In history the last one has proved to be very dangerous cause it's open to be interpreted in whatever way the ones in power choose. So yes, Iran it's not in the top 10 of my favourite governments either. For me it's not a reason to bomb it out of nowhere, because we go back to the law of the one with the most power, and as of now i wouldnt trust Trump doing whatever he feels like.

  • No because, you see, they good. They not previously communist, in fact, they hate commies. So very easy, if america do its good and iran deserved it because only us can have nuclear bombs and they cant cause they are brown. Everything was ok according to international law, nothing was violated whatsover, instead russian yes they violated law and all their soldiers are stupid cause they follow blindly the orders of an autoritarian leader which uses poor excuses to pursue economic or political interests. Very different.

    Israel's attacks are not illegal, while Russia has violated international order by its war against Ukraine, says Merkel

    Jump

  • I dont get how, as europe, we still insist to follow every fucking step of that travesty of a country that is the united states. We have the resources to do everything on our own terms and we still do this blatant fucking ass licking of a warmongering bastard and his little fucking friends like israel.

    We dont have the balls to stand up for anything even its blatant violation of international law, of which we pretend to be the biggest defenders. Yeah israel is aleays right and yet again another western violation of sovereignity is justified because iran has nuclear (which israel has since decades) but they would use it bad not like us, good and morally stable.

  • Does your language have animal slangs?

    Jump

  • Very interesting! Yeah it's strange the use of the fly, i'd argue that a cat has a more doubleface aura than a cat. Still pretty cool

  • What's something you immediately judge a person for when you see them wearing or have?

    Jump

  • Feel free to do whatever you want man, im not gonna stop you. They asked and i answered just for fun, i just think this way but you're never gonna see me bother anyone neither in real life or online for their choices. It's just that this comes to my mind when i see it. Have a nice day

  • In Italy "uccello" (bird) means penis in a very unformal context, usually used with friends. In Tuscany, for the regional ones, we have "Topa" (female of the mouse) to indicate a very pretty girl, also very unformal and a bit rude. Same translation for "passera" (female of the sparrow). Both can also indicate the literal female reproductive organe. "Gatta morta" (dead female cat) means somebody who acts ingenous or hide her personality under a chill, almost naif mask to act at the opportune moment.

  • Good ev olive oil is something else. Once you try you can never go back to.

    I lived most my life using and tasting the highest quality cause my dad works in the agricolutural field, writing contracts for farmers and etc. and, while not so good paid, the job comes with the upside of the presents from said farmers. Liters and liters of the highest quality oil italy can produce. I think we never (since he had this job) boight a can of oil, and its a pretty big save too considering that kind of oil easily goes for 20€/L.

    When i was out for university, my tight budget meant i had to resort to just "Olive oil". Not EV. Not 100% local. I though "how bad can it be, its still pressed olives!" Bad, very bad.
